A horizontally oriented drypoint print in dark brown ink on cream paper depicts a vast coastal scene. To our right, small, silhouetted figures cluster in shallow, shimmering water. On the left, a lone sailboat with a dark, triangular sail navigates white-capped waves. The upper two-thirds of the composition features a sprawling, luminous sky, punctuated by fine diagonal hatching at the top edge and three tiny birds in flight.
